Since the start of the Trump administration’s “Operation Metro Surge” in Minnesota, federal prosecutors have reportedly charged 158 anti-ICE agitators with federal crimes, including “FACE Act violations, conspiracy charges, and obstruction of federal agents.” Some of the offenses carry penalties of up to 20 years in prison. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced last week that she “expect more arrests to come” as the Justice Department is poised to crack down on similar anti-ICE insurgencies nationwide. Those arrested in Minnesota include nine agitators who disrupted a church service (including Don Lemon, and a number of “ICE Watch” insurgents who “blocked, assaulted,

To stop the riots in MN. We know most of the rioters are on welfare. So, if a rioter commits a felony, police should arrest them and voila their welfare is taken away.- forever. If Trump finds a rule that they broke their welfare contract for and tells them they will lose their benefits they will believe him and LEAVE. Welfare is a contract - if you break the rules you agreed to you lose the benefits. If we did that they would all leave because they are getting paid to protest, but when that event is over they still want their welfare $. If you take it away they will leave because they want their gov't $. Like a NO FLY LIST have a NO WELFARE LIST. No more violence - they will all leave. Why should I pay for this idiocy.

Given that it is February, sentence them to picking up trash along I-20 from sun up to sun down. They can start at the Georgia state line and work their way west to the Mississippi border. Then reverse the process.

Protesting is one thing, but interfering with law enforcement to prevent them from doing their job is ILLEGAL including these new Antifa checkpoints. The democrat Mayor and Governor have ordered their law enforcement not help so they also NEED to be charged and convicted of conspiracy and insurrection.

Start with this. Any official who claims their State or City is a 'sanctuary' be brought up on charges of interfering with the Federal Govt. and actually prosecuted. They are committing a felony. It is so simple to do. The first time one is found guilty and jailed would be a big step toward reclaiming our nation.

These People need to be Charged, and Jailed until their Hearing. Then they should be sent straight to Prison for the time the Judge gives them. Hopefully it will be at least a couple Years! That is the only way to stop this. They are not afraid of being arrested because they have been told by the people who hired them, that they will keep them out of Jail. There should be Jail until Hearing and once their sentence is given, off they go to Prison. That will scare them to death and the word will get out that NOBODY can save them!

The Feds can charge and try to prosecute them all they want. The problem is the liberal judges and juries in Minneapolis. Unless they plea to something or their trials are somewhere else, they will most likely walk free.

"The Feds can charge and try to prosecute them all they want. The problem is the liberal judges and juries in Minneapolis. Unless they plea to something or their trials are somewhere else, they will most likely walk free." I believe, but I could be wrong, that if they are charged with an interstate crime (inciting a riot over state lines), then the venue can be moved. Once again, I could be wrong on that. But they can also make the process the punishment.

The violence and size of the anti-ICE riots in Minnesota took federal officials by surprise. But maybe they shouldn’t be shocked. As it turns out, and as is often the case when it comes to far-left demonstrations, outside money, organizations and foreign influence are firing the revolt . As Deputy U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche this week told “The Ingraham Angle,” investigators discovered a “massive fraud going on all through Minneapolis, all through Minnesota, and suddenly it turned. It turned almost on a dime, and it became suddenly all about ICE, all about getting ICE out and how horrible ICE was doing,”

For too long, America’s retirement system has worked for the few, not the many. Wall Street insiders, wealthy elites, and big public pension funds have built wealth via the private markets – private equity, private credit, and real estate. Meanwhile, hardworking Americans are told to stay in their lane. If you work a regular job and save through a 401(k), you are effectively shut out from greater choice and investment access for your well-earned money. That’s not an accident. Elites – like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) – don’t want this change because it erodes their interests and your opportunity for wealth creation.

The Army of Mohammed (Jaish-e-Mohammed — JeM), one of Pakistan's too-many-to-count jihadist terrorist groups, recently launched its first-ever women's wing. JeM chief Azhar claims that since its launch, the women's wing [which runs indoctrination courses that include specialized training for combat and suicide missions] has recruited 5,000 members. According to journalists who analyzed his audio message, Azhar explains how these women are now recruited, trained, and integrated into his long-term "global jihad" mission, mirroring the structure of JeM's long-running male training program. Azhar promised that any woman who joins the group "will go straight to paradise from her grave after death."

President Trump has invited several nations — including key U.S. allies — to join his “Board of Peace” to oversee postwar restoration efforts in the Gaza Strip, but several world leaders have rejected the request, and one country had its invitation revoked. The board was established after the first phase of Trump’s 20-point peace plan to rehabilitate Gaza after Israel and Hamas reached a fragile ceasefire deal following two years of conflict that destroyed much of the territory’s infrastructure and killed tens of thousands of Palestinians. The Trump administration launched the board at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, and issued invitations for 60 countries to join the board.

The attention of those less politically minded is focused on the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy -- always fodder for the would-be Colombos and Miss Marples -- and the Olympics.

The ousted dictator Nicolás Maduro seems isolated, depressed, and devoid of funds sufficient to hire teams of lawyers to defend him. Any claims he might have for immunity seem destined to fail. The evidence establishes he was born in Colombia; his claim falls because only a native Venezuelan is entitled to hold the office of president.

The race was on hold for more than 20 minutes as Vonn was tended to on the course.

I wrote a piece last year firmly supporting the reintroduction of wolves into Colorado to share the mountain landscape with cattle ranchers. I’ve changed my mind. My reasoning at the time was that wolves are part of the natural landscape here. They help the huge deer and elk herds by taking the old and weak out for dinner. As a lifelong hiker and mountaineer, I also liked the mere idea of having wolves in the Colorado mountains even if I never saw one (and I never have). After all, they’d been here for millions of years until they were eradicated in the 20th century. As for wolves’ occasional predation on cattle,

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The Seattle Seahawks used a dominant defense and the strong running of game MVP Kenneth Walker III on Sunday to crush the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX. It was the Seahawks’ second Super Bowl title in four appearances. It came 12 years after Seattle defeated Denver 43-8 in Super Bowl XLVIII -- a fitting nod to the 12th man that has fueled the energy at Seahawks’ home games. The game, before 70,823 fans at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, showcased a punishing, opportunistic defense by the Seahawks that rendered Patriots quarterback Drake Maye mostly ineffective all night.

Democrats push hard for every possible advantage in elections, but courts sometimes draw a line. U.S. District Judge William L. Osteen Jr. delivered a ruling that defined those lines by rejecting a Democratic demand for early voting sites on three North Carolina university campuses. His ruling carried an unmistakable tone of impatience toward a case that tried to dress political convenience as constitutional necessity. The College Democrats of North Carolina argued that without on-campus sites, students would need to travel off campus to vote, imposing time and transportation burdens on young voters. That's the premise Judge Osteen rejected, making clear that elections aren't built to require perfect comfort;
